THIS WAS ALL YOUR FAULT!
But seriously, where was Arlovskis boxing defence at, he had his hands down, let Kharitonov take away his space, and while his footwork was ok, he didn't really make much use of it. How does he expect to move to boxing if he's getting knocked out by the likes of Rodgers and Kharinonov.

he stopped moving and let himself get put into the fence and then got counterpunched off of a power shot.... that would be why he lost

I could see that, although he did eat a couple of soild shots before finally going out. So I didn't think it was his chin, so much as lack of protecting the chin.

I kinda did, wasnt sure what i was, he have surgery or something? I know you said there was something wrong with Andrei that was keeping him from performing.
And yes, it was depressing, I was hoping for him yet again, and early it looked like he should be outbox Kharintonov, then he got caught up in a slugfest.. |

Fedor got exposed again.
I cant believe so many people call him the best in the world. Hardly, he got mauled and man handled by Silva like nobody's business. He could do NOTHING to Silva, it was like watch a 3 year old kid fight a 25 year old man. Fedor legend? I dont think so. More like washed up former legend with a bunch of wins against cans. Overeem or Rogers are gonna take this. |

Silva's got 4 inches and 30 lbs on Fedor, maybe even more. It's pretty hard to get that off of you. Also he had about a 7 inch reach advantage. Silva had many advantages but Despite being at a disadvantage in many of his previous fights, Fedor has beaten the odds and if the fight stayed standing up he would have had a good chance to take out Silva. He goes into every fight fearless, trying to knock out everyone in his path. Fedor is in the tail end of his career and it's not unexpected for a fighter to lose when they are in this period.

Honestly, I think the fact that both Werdum and Silva have better ground games than anyone Fedor has faced in about five years played a part in those losses.
People like Arlovski or Rogers didn't present as many problems stylistically. I think Fedor jumped into Silva's guard so willingly because he underestimated that aspect of Silva's game which led to him eventually getting mounted and taking the beating that ultimately stopped the fight. Hong Man Choi was even bigger than Silva, but not as skilled so Fedor had an easier time with him. |

It sucks that so many of the casual fans are going to remember Fedor for the two losses instead of the dominance he displayed prior.

I know. Fedors lack of ever touching anything resembling a gym and being 230pounds of mostly chub now has caught up with him. I think if he actually got into some shape and dropped to LW he could be very competitive. I had Fedor winning the first round of the fight. Doesn't take away from anything he's done, ridiculous to state otherwise.

Yo
I am not saying Fedor wasnt good in the past. He was. But I am sayin its ridiculous that people keep calling him the best in the world when today he is far from that. And not just because of this loss or Werdum loss, hes been bad before that only he faced inferior opponents like Arlovski. Even Rogers almost beat Fedor. Fedor USED to be the best ever (argurably) but has not been close to that for years. Thats all im sayin... |

Notice how all these dudes act nice like they are friends but at UFC weigh-ins the fighters are all up in each other's faces. |

The only thing Arlovski has going for him these days is that he looks cool and like one of the guys from 300. Thats it...dude looks cool but he is washed up as a fighter. Once his glass chin got exposed, everone goes after his chin and he goes down with a tap.
Well before someone gets on my case, from a tap from a pro. I am sure Arlovski would kick my ass even if he had one hand tied behind his back, but ya know what im sayin. |

Dunno, he hasn't really beat anybody worth much since Cro Cop/since the UFC's 'boom period'. I still have problems believing that stuff with him/his management/'shady characters' etc aka the stuff that apparently hindered him signing with Dana White when basically if he really wanted to fight there, where the majority of the world's best fighters are or strive to be, he 100% could have. And he probably would have been pounded even sooner. And maybe he knew that.

he's probably talking more about the difference in wages since ufc apparently offered a huge one.

if it's not his lung i'm gonna guess it's his liver or something. fits in because he's eastern european and thus blatantly smashing the vodka 24/7.

I just watched the fight, I really hope Fedor doesn't quit. He showed a lot in that fight, the guy still has it. He came out swinging and didn't give up in the second round, if they cut they eye he could've kept going and at least tied the fight..

Also this fight shows that Brock would have killed Fedor so Fedor is lucky he didnt come to UFC cause Brock would have done this to him sooner than Silva and before his lost to Werdum.

You love Brocks dick, dont you? Brock could have easily eaten one of those bombs Fedor was throwing and then Brock would have turtled. It's also worth noting that Fedor would be better suited for LW in todays MMA.

BTW I'm not saying Fedor would crush Brock, but I think you're rushing to conclusions.

Sure there was something about him (M1 Global) wanting to co-promote with UFC, which is insane.
